dudecalledbro/handbrake repository overview

⁠Handbrake

This repository is designed to build Docker images for handbrake⁠.

docker pull dudecalledbro/handbrake:latest

⁠Usage

With this Docker image, HandBrake can be easily used to encode *.mkv files. This is particularly useful if you are using a dedicated encoding server or want to use HandBrake without a local installation. The image can be run via Docker Compose, for example. To do this, simply copy all videos to be processed into the data directory. The container can then be started, which automatically begins the encoding process.

# Start Docker Container
docker compose up --detach

# View Docker Container Logs
docker compose logs --follow

⁠Build

This image build is scheduled with GitHub Actions and will be pushed to DockerHub. The image will also be rebuilt, if the main branch is updated. If you need to build the image locally, ensure Docker⁠ is installed and execute the following:

docker build -t handbrake:latest .
